Roof Replacement — Northern Utah

What Does a New Roof Actually Cost in Utah?

Most roofing contractors make you sit through a sales pitch before they'll tell you a number. We do the opposite. Most Northern Utah roof replacements run between $8,500 and $18,000. Here is exactly what drives that range and what you get at every price point.

The number you came here for

$8,500 – $25,000

That is the honest range for most shingle roof replacements in Northern Utah on a typical home. The sections below explain exactly what pushes a job toward the low or high end, and what you get at each price point.

Metal roofs run higher — $7 to $14 per square foot installed, with a 40 to 70 year lifespan. See metal roofing options →

What Drives the Cost of Your Roof

Four factors move the needle more than anything else. Here is what each one actually means for your project.

Material Choice

GAF Timberline HDZ shingles are our standard. Upgrading to UHDZ or adding a higher warranty tier adds cost. Most homeowners are surprised how small the gap is between builder and premium.

Roof Size

We price by the square (100 sq ft). Your roof is typically 1.3 to 1.5 times the footprint of your home. A 2,000 sq ft home usually has a 2,600 to 3,000 sq ft roof.

Roof Pitch

A steep pitch slows the crew down and requires additional safety rigging. A 12/12 pitch can add $1,500 or more compared to a standard 4/12 or 6/12. We measure this during inspection.

Complexity

Every valley, dormer, chimney, and skylight adds flashing labor. A simple gable roof costs less than a hip roof with six penetrations. We walk this during your free inspection.

Three Options. All Excellent Roofs.

Every tier uses GAF products and our own trained crew. The difference is the warranty level. Prices assume a 2,500 sq ft roof — the average for a Utah home.

Who We Are Probably Not the Right Fit For

We would rather be honest about this upfront than waste your time or ours. Homer Roofing is likely not your contractor if:

You need the absolute lowest price and are comparing bids by price alone
You want work started without a written quote and signed agreement
You are fine with subcontractors whose quality and training you cannot verify
You want a contractor who will estimate without getting on the roof

If that is not you — if you want a contractor who gets on your roof, shows you what they find, gives you a written quote, and shows up with their own crew — we are probably a good fit. Let us prove it.

What Homeowners Say

Real Projects. Real Customers.

★★★★★

"Got three quotes. Homer wasn't the cheapest. But they were the only ones who got on my roof, showed me photos of what they found, and explained exactly what I was paying for. Worth every dollar."

Todd M.

★★★★★

"I was nervous about the cost. They walked me through all three options with no pressure at all. I picked mid grade and couldn't be happier. Crew was clean, fast, and professional."

Camille H.

Logan, UT

★★★★★

"Insurance claim after hail. Homer handled everything with my adjuster. Zero stress on my end. The roof looks incredible and the Golden Pledge warranty gives me real peace of mind."

Questions Homeowners Ask About Roof Replacement

Including the ones most roofers would rather you not ask.

Why are your prices higher than the $6,000 quote I got from another contractor?

A $6,000 roof replacement on a 2,500 sq ft home in Utah is a math problem that does not add up. At that price, something is being skipped — tear-off, proper underlayment, new flashings, or a manufacturer warranty. We use a full GAF system and pay our own crew a fair wage. We can show you exactly what is in our quote line by line.

How do I know which tier is right for me?

Most homeowners choose Mid Grade. The 10-year GAF workmanship warranty on top of our own warranty means you have two companies standing behind the roof. If you plan to stay in your home long term or want the absolute best warranty available, step up to Premium. If budget is the primary constraint, Builder Grade is still an excellent roof.

Do these prices include everything?

Yes. Tear-off, disposal, underlayment, ice and water shield, pipe boots, flashings, ridge vent, cleanup, and our workmanship warranty are all included. The only thing quoted separately is decking replacement if we find significant rot after tear-off. We document this with photos and call you before doing anything additional.

How long does a roof replacement take?

Most residential replacements are completed in one day. Larger or more complex roofs may take two days. We schedule a full crew, not a small team that drags it out. We give you a completion estimate when we schedule your project.

Will my homeowner's insurance cover a roof replacement?

If the damage was caused by hail, wind, or another covered storm event, likely yes. We work with insurance companies regularly. We document the damage, communicate with your adjuster, and guide you through the process. We never inflate claims — we document accurately and let the coverage do its job.

What if you find rotted decking under my shingles?

We stop, photograph it, and call you before replacing anything beyond the original scope. Decking is priced by the sheet. We tell you how many sheets, the cost, and let you approve it before we continue. No surprises.

How long will a new roof last?

GAF Timberline shingles are rated for 30 to 50 years depending on the line. Real-world lifespan in Northern Utah depends on pitch, ventilation, and maintenance. A properly installed roof with good attic ventilation routinely lasts 25 to 40 years.
